"There is little enough devotion in the world that we should be glad for it in whatever form it appears, and never mock it, or underestimate its depths."

This week I've been working on two projects.

I started a new prayer shawl, which is knit in squares and then pieced together. That lets me knit it a square at a time and makes me feel like I'm making a lot of progress.

I started reading Les Miserables. I'm always wary of reading "classics" because I have been so thoroughly unimpressed by some of them. (The Old Man and the Sea to name one...) But so far I'm really enjoying Les Miserables. I don't know if it's the fact that I don't really know the story so it's full of twists and turns or that I feel really accomplished for reading it because it's such a long book to read. Either way, I feel like I can't get enough of it lately.

About Me

I'm a high school English teacher who lives with my wonderful husband, two cats, and a dog. I spend my time reading, knitting, and attempting to stay devoted to something long enough to accomplish anything.
